Section 37 The patriarch was surprised to see his relatives
At midnight the next day, the Wu family came out of the hotel one after another, shouting and going downstairs to have breakfast.
There was nothing special about breakfast, and when they came to the restaurant on the side of the inn, the father of the military master was waiting here, and after giving each other a salute, the fat salt merchant said goodbye: "You can't go to Suzhou with me, and don't blame you for the disrespectful breakfast here." I really want to stay a few more days, but the investment in Suzhou is important, so I have to say goodbye! ”
On behalf of the Wu family in Suzhou, the patriarch thanked the salt merchants for their trust and respect, and said: "The matter of Bianjing is not over, I'm sorry, I hope that the journey will be smooth and the investment will be successful!" ”
After a brief exchange of views on specific issues such as the consultation on investment matters, the meeting took place before going on to get busy.
On the way to the flower house, the brother of the smart brother asked a question that surprised everyone: "What is the relationship between the Baihe Fairy of Goolan and Wu Ji of the Flower Pavilion, the little little point of Goolan and the little sister of the Flower Pavilion?" ”
Everyone walked all the way, guessed all the way, and was not enthusiastic.
When the flower hall arrived, the brother of the smart brother concluded: "You must ask to understand, definitely!" ”
Wu Ji is also an extremely caring person, he asked the little junior sister to watch outside, if the Wu family in Suzhou comes, then hurry up and prepare to greet him.
When the little junior sister's two claws and pigtails came into Wu Ji's sight one by one, Wu Ji put down the work in her hand, tidied up her clothes as she walked, smoothed her hair, and walked downstairs quickly.
And Wu Ji's sisters are very caring, they followed out, lined up to welcome, Wu Ji was quite grateful, thanked the sisters, and returned with a sincere smile.
The little junior sister rushed to the front, and she ran forward from afar, holding the hands of the patriarch's grandfather and grandmother, and the mouth was still welcoming everyone vigorously.
The younger brother of the smart brother saw that the little junior sister was about the same age as himself, so he asked, "Who are you from the girl of the Wu family?" ”
"Master and sister!" The little junior sister said enthusiastically. "You can also call it a mother, I was raised by her."
When the welcoming sisters saw the arrival of the guests, they gathered around and chattered and chattered, so that it was not lively.
The patriarch and his entourage were welcomed into the rehearsal hall, where the owner laid out the snacks and fruits they needed. And lead the people who come in to take their seats, and the hospitality is not to be said.
Wu Ji didn't wait for the patriarch's grandfather and grandmother and other old family members to speak, so she burst into tears and couldn't cry. Fortunately, the owner of the museum told Wu Ji's origin, Wu Ji is indeed a family surnamed Wu in Suzhou, because of the famine here because of the famine, entrusted by Wu Ji's dying parents, adopted and cultivated her. So far, it has been a success, and it is very remarkable.
Unexpectedly, among the people who cried very sadly, it was not only Wu Ji alone, but also the little junior sister. The owner of the hall is already a half-old who still has charm, she hugged her little sister in her arms and comforted: "The three of us are not only abandoned by fate, but we are also people who fate takes special care of. It's lucky to finally be able to achieve something of your own. It doesn't have to be that way. ”
After some inquiry, it is almost consistent with the guess of the patriarch's grandfather, Wu Ji is indeed the granddaughter of the Wu family in Suzhou, and the younger brother of the patriarch's grandfather, because of a flood more than 20 years ago, the Wu family was destitute. had to go out to escape the famine and seek a way to survive, so his parents carried Wu Ji, who was still in infancy, on their backs and came to Beijing.
It was not easy to survive, and I was hungry and screaming all day long. Seeing that the skin was covered with bones, and it happened that the house leaked and rained overnight, and the broken boat encountered the head wind, Wu Ji's mother fell ill, and she couldn't support it anymore, so she had to be taken in.
The grandfather of the Wu family is very grateful to the owner, especially the grandmother, who is full of tears, in addition to gratitude or gratitude. Everyone else present was also so excited that they couldn't speak.
The smart brother and the younger brother walked to Wu Ji's side, and the three of them hugged each other, and family affection flowed between them.
The owner of the hall is really a warm-hearted person, he presented the token on the side, a piece of silver, a letter and a small quilt wrapped in a child, and said to the patriarch grandfather: "My wish for many years will be settled, you have read it carefully, I hope there is no mistake." ”
When the patriarch opened the letter, the tears couldn't stop rolling down, and he didn't need to look at the content, the familiar font, the familiar handwriting and the signature of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing explained everything.
Grandma rummaged through the little quilt, and she couldn't be wrong, she put the little quilt on her face and kissed it again and again. The patriarch shook his wife sideways and asked, "I remember that when you sent the third brother and their family out, you gave them the small quilt used by the boss, which was sewn by your own hands, right?" ”
Grandma nodded again and again, she pointed to the dense and even stitches, and also pointed to the little girl in the lotus leaf bush embroidered on the small quilt, she wiped her tears, and said to her husband: "Do you remember, after giving birth to the eldest now, I want a daughter, this embroidery is the wish, I embroider it with a needle and a thread." ”
Ji and the little junior sister were still sobbing, and the hall owner said: "Okay, okay, today is a good day, don't be so sad, be happy, don't let the tears block the family affection." ”
When Wu Ji wiped away her tears for her little sister, she also cleaned up her mood, knelt on the ground, and called her uncle and aunt emotionally.
Wu Jizhi's eldest aunt was careful, she asked Wu Ji, "Have you ever seen your parents after?" ”
"I also want to ask you, uncle, have my parents ever returned?" Wu Ji also asked with a glimmer of hope.
The cold field, the terrible cold field, this kind of scene says it all.
Wu Ji said: "I once dreamed of my parents, my father and uncle looked cool, but a little taller, and my mother had a red mole under her left earlobe, I don't know if it was or not?" ”
"Family affection is family affection, and it is always connected!" Wu Ji's eldest aunt replied affectionately, "That's right, your parents are what you remember." ”
The owner of the hall is really a person who has seen the world through ups and downs, since he has admitted his family, of course, don't dwell on the whereabouts of his relatives anymore, this is too unpleasant, it will be a manufacturing factory of tears, and it is the birthplace of sadness, she changed the topic and said: "Wu Ji once helped a Wu girl named Wu Yan, who is also a native of Suzhou, and has the fact of master and apprentice with each other, but does not stick to the name of master and apprentice, does the patriarch grandfather know this person?" ”
The patriarch's grandfather tried his best to recall, as if he said to himself: "Yes, this is Wu Ji's second uncle's family, they have returned to Suzhou, if I am not mistaken, it seems that they are married in the Valley of Beauty, and there is a royal background." ”
Wu Ji nodded in affirmation and said: "That's right, the master-apprentice relationship between our sisters is still the thread of the little prince, and it must be a powerful role on the stage of the beauty Gu Jiao's family now!" ”
Wu Ji's eldest aunt asked about another family, that is, a side branch of the Wu family, a family of four, a son and a daughter, who traveled the world because they liked new words, and asked Wu Ji if she had ever seen it.
Without waiting for Wu Ji to answer, the owner of the pavilion replied on his behalf: "Why haven't I seen it, I have also kept them, they love military life and refuse to stay here." ”
"Yes, what Master Liu once said!" The little junior sister said happily, "When the family arrived in Yanzhou Mansion, they also helped Master Liu sing new words of battle, and maybe they still performed in the Yanzhou Mansion." ”
The smart brother and the younger brother are more interested in the little junior sister, and they are concerned about who is more powerful, so they take the opportunity to ask questions. The little junior sister said modestly: "I am not as famous as Xiaobu, but he is the younger brother of the emperor today." ”
The younger brother of the smart brother was very strange: "The little one is a man!" ”
"Neither nor not!" The little junior sister replied, "Like me, it's not a woman pretending to be a man!" (To be continued......)
